Born and raised in Indianapolis, IN, Laura received her BA at University of North Texas and her MA at Ball State University. When Laura isn't helping patients, she is at home spending time with family and friends, binge watching cooking shows, or enjoying concerts. When asked why she chose a career in community health/ at JPCHC, she said "Everyone deserves access to quality mental health care, no matter their income or insurance status. I very much align with the mission of JPCHC and appreciate the different opportunities that the agency offers to provide psychological services in my home state." We're so happy to have you as part of the JPCHC team, Laura! #meettheteam #psychologist #communityhealthcare #staffmemberspotlight

National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM) is an annual observance held in August to highlight the importance of vaccination for people of all ages. Vaccines protect us from dangerous preventable diseases like Chickenpox, Flu, Hepatitis, Measles, Mumps, Meningococcal, Pneumonia, Shingles, Pertussis (whooping cough), Polio and more. Vaccines not only help protect us and those we love from getting these diseases, they also help prevent spreading diseases to those that are unvaccinated. #ImmunizationAwareness #vaccines #ImmunizationSavesLives
